Hi! I am Christina, your Garden Coach and owner of Garden Path Consulting

I believe that the most beautiful landscapes are created with edible plants and ornamental varieties. I am drawn to the potager style kitchen gardening and believe that the garden should be just as beautiful as it is intentional and productive - gardens are a place of being present and feeling peaceful.

Growing up with Italian/Mediterranean roots, I was taught that food feeds the body, mind, and soul. I have memories of picking my vegetable of choice for dinner in my grandmother’s backyard potager garden. As a child, the garden seemed vast and magical — discovering where food comes from and how it grows became an interest of mine early on. Growing specific vegetable and herb varieties has channeled a connection to my family history by allowing me to recreate regional family recipes passed on from previous generations. To this day, I still find magic in the garden daily. There is always something to look forward to!

I am a self taught, hobby gardener. I am passionate about growing my own food, incorporating edible plants in garden landscapes, creating potager garden designs, and growing a cut flower garden. I have been trained as a garden consultant and completed the Gardenary Garden Consultant certification program. In addition, I completed the Floret Online Workshop training course, an annual 6-week intensive online learning program focused on growing flowers on a small scale. Lastly, I have taken flower arranging courses and horticulture classes at a local college for fun and enrichment purposes.

I believe growing food has a way of linking each of us with one another. When we grow our own food—we grow for flavor and are getting better nutrition. There is a great deal of enjoyment in creating nature’s community in our own backyards and neighborhoods. My goal is to create a garden design that helps establish a diverse ecosystem that works above and below the soil line. We will learn to grow with nature in harmony together.

I am a true believer in that :

  • The smell of herbs relieves anxiety

  • Seeing the color green slows down your heart rate

  • Hearing birds sing can help you focus

  • Watching plants grow increases the production of feel good hormones like serotonin

  • Gardening can actually make you happy

LET’S GROW TOGETHER!

We look forward to connecting and will be in touch soon.
